The day before the funeral, Mr Qingwang arrived at his neighbor’s house to find the coffin empty and the corpse gone.
A 95-year-old Chinese woman’s family was told she died and to prepare for the funeral.
But they didn’t expect what would happen next.
The day before the funeral, Mr Qingwang arrived at his neighbor’s house to find the coffin empty and the corpse gone.
“We were so terrified, and immediately asked the neighbors to come for help,” he said.
After searching for the missing body, the villagers were stunned to find Mrs Xiufeng sitting on a stool in her kitchen cooking.
The 95-year-old Chinese woman reportedly told villagers: “I slept for a long time. After waking up, I felt so hungry, and wanted to cook something to eat.
“I pushed the lid for a long time to climb out.”
